Personality
In contrast to Aipii, who is more tomboyish, Love-chan has a more mature and calm personality. She regularly refers to herself as "cool beauty." Love-chan is also a fan of Kamen Rider. When she is with Kizuna Ai and Aipii, she tries to be the mature big sister of the group, but often falling for her sisters' jokes.
Background
The former company in charge of Kizuna AI, Activ8, conceived in June 2019 a new initiative called the Four Kizuna AI, which was unveiled through a series of videos on A.I. Channel called Kizuna AI's Everyday (キズナアイな日々 Kizuna Ai na Hibi). The main goal of the project was to diversify Kizuna AI's content and to introduce a franchise of the brand to China. Love-chan was the first of three new Kizuna AI to be introduced to the public.
Unfortunately, the project was not well received by the fans fearful that the new personalities would replace the original and it eventually lead to a series of reforms on how the content of Kizuna AI was made. One of these decisions was to separate Love-chan and Aipii from Kizuna AI. First by giving them identification markers, but eventually to give them a separate channel and a new brand image.
While she was part of A.I. Channel, she used a hairpin with the design of a blue number sign (#) and "Love-chan" was a nickname given to her by fans. In 8 April 2020 she and her sister Aipii debuted on their new independent channel and on 14 June of the same year, she debuted her new appearance.
